Do you have a 10th Gen Intel CPU? I was looking at why the game would crash at launch and found this: If you have an Intel 10th+ generation chip, an OpenSSL bug prevents this game from loading. Fortunately the fix is safe and easy! All you have to do is add an environment variable. I had this issue and this fix worked for me. This is the Intel issue in question: software.intel.com/content/www/us/en/develop/articles/openssl-sha-crash-bug-requires-application-update.html In case the first link stops working, here's a summary: - Press WinKey+R to open Run window. In it paste: SystemPropertiesAdvanced - Press Enter - Click Environment Variables at the bottom - Under System Variables, press New - Add these values to the variable: Variable Name: OPENSSL_ia32cap Variable value: ~0x20000000 Click Ok to close the windows, then try running the game again.
Still don't understand but thanks anyway,
Any luck since?
It just keeps crashing even when i first got the game it crashed after i installed it
I'm not sure then... maybe your settings have a conflict? Make sure to update graphics card drivers too.
